▌Affected by the halving event and the decline in the number of new wallets, Bitcoin miners' income has hit a new low in the past two months

Data shows that following the block reward halving event on April 20, Bitcoin miners’ revenue per TH/s (7-day MA) has hit an all-time low in the past two months.

In addition to the halving, another possible reason for the decline in miners’ revenue is the low number of new wallets entering the Bitcoin ecosystem, which is currently at its lowest level since 2018 (7-day MA).

It is worth mentioning that the mining company CleanSpark is still performing well, and its stock price has outperformed Bitcoin so far this year. In addition, the stock prices of Bitcoin mining companies Bitfarms and Core Scientific have also outperformed Bitcoin, but smaller mining companies have been struggling. (The Block)

▌What is an infinite coin minting attack?

Infinite minting attacks occur when an attacker manipulates the contract code to continuously mint new tokens beyond the authorized supply limit. Malicious actors may profit from such attacks by selling illegally created tokens or interfering with the normal operation of the affected blockchain network. The prevalence of infinite minting attacks highlights the importance of conducting thorough code audits and incorporating security measures into smart contract development to prevent such vulnerabilities.
